Touch Pads component

This board provides two touch areas for use with capacitive sensing. Hence two digital touch switches can be implemented. This component directly interfaces with the EBM013 Sensors board.

Component Source Code

Please click here to download the component source project: FC_Comp_Source_EBM013v5.fcfx

Detailed description

No detailed description exists yet for this component

Examples

Sample program using the EBM013 - Touch Pads sensor.

Sensors are first calibrated and then can be read as digital switches
